Abstract: A catheter has a distal assembly with at least one loop, if not two, with ring electrodes. The distal assembly has an elongated support member covered by an extruded form having two lumens, one sized for nonslip tight fit with the support member. A single continuous puller wire for bidirectional deflection is pre-bent into two long portions and a U-shape bend therebetween. The U-shape bend is anchored at a distal end of a deflectable section which is reinforced by at least one washer having at least two holes, each hole axially aligned with a respective lumen in the deflectable section. Each hole is centered with a lumen so that each puller wire portion therethrough is straight and subjected to tensile force only. A proximal end of the support member is flattened and serrated to provide a better bonding to the distal end of the deflectable section.

Abstract: The present invention generally relates to systems and methods for creating droplets. In one aspect, a plurality of droplets (27) is introduced into a continuous fluid stream (21) to cause the continuous fluid stream to form discrete droplets. In some cases, the droplets that are formed from the continuous fluid stream may be substantially monodisperse. The continuous fluid stream may, in some cases, be a jetting fluid stream flowing at a relatively high linear flow rate, and in certain embodiments, high rates of droplet formation from the jetting fluid may thereby be achieved. Additionally, certain aspects of the invention are generally directed to devices, such as microfluidic devices, able to form such droplets. For example, in one set of embodiments, a device may include a junction (14) where a plurality of droplets (27) can be introduced into a continuous fluid stream (21), and optionally, the device may include additional junctions (12) able to cause the formation of the plurality of droplets and/or the formation of the continuous fluid stream. Still other disclosed aspects are generally directed to methods of making such devices, methods of using such devices, kits involving such devices, and the like.

Filed: 2013-02-28
Abstract: L'invention porte sur un contenant ou un récipient en verre renforcé, tel que, mais sans y être limité, des fioles pour contenir des produits pharmaceutiques ou des vaccins dans un état hermétique et/ou stérile. Le récipient en verre renforcé subit un processus de renforcement qui produit une compression à la surface et une tension à l'intérieur de la paroi du récipient. Le processus de renforcement est conçu de telle sorte que la tension à l'intérieur de la paroi est suffisamment grande pour assurer une défaillance catastrophique du récipient, de façon à rendre ainsi le produit inutilisable, si la stérilité est compromise par une fissure à travers la paroi. La tension est supérieure à une tension centrale de seuil, au-dessus de laquelle une défaillance catastrophique du récipient est garantie, de façon à éliminer ainsi tout potentiel de violation de l'intégrité pharmaceutique.

Abstract: The present invention discloses a device and method for extracting a tree stump from the ground, the device 100 comprising an annular sawing means 110 for detaching the tree stump from its roots in the ground. The sawing means comprises a cylinder portion 115 having an opening 116. The cylinder portion encloses an internal space 117 for confining the tree stump, an expel means 130 arranged inside the cylinder portion, which expel means in respect thereto is movably arranged, and a feeding advancement mechanism of the sawing means arranged to control the expel means to bear against the tree stump during detaching thereof. The feeding advancement means according to the present invention is arranged for controlling a current vertical position of the sawing means along its axis of rotation by controlling the expel means, which is active during detaching of the tree stump, and arranged to bear against the tree stump at all times. This provides a more controlled operation of the sawing means as it provides stabilization during sawing.
